Description
On offer here is a well-known and very competitive car having been campaigned regularly and successfully in the UK historic racing scene.
The Mk II Capri was built by Dave Weir, a member of the original team as an homage to the car raced so successfully in 1974 and 1975 by Holman Blackburn and Mike Crabtree.
Holman Blackburn was consulted about several aspects of the car's build and presentation and, in conjunction with Dave Weir's memory, this impressive Capri is pretty much an exact replica of the original.
It's currently presented in its period livery when sponsors Hermetite and Black and Decker contributed to the budget, and the paint scheme and decals have all been correctly replicated.
The car's current owner, our vendor, bought the car from Dave Weir unused in 2017 and has subsequently taken part in more than 25 races with excellent results, including numerous wins in the Tony Dron Series run by Motor Racing Legends.
The car was also invited to the last two Goodwood Members...
